10 - The Meaning of Lives

    
 A year from Now you may wish 
You had started Today
-Karen Lamb

The title may seem confusing but this is how I explain things in my head.  I have two lives, my internet life and the real one.  Sometimes they get along splendidly too often they are getting on each other’s nerves.  One of the sub goals of this project is to blend the two lives.  It is a lifestyle change process. This made me wonder, what is lifestyle?  What is wellness?  The definitions are so simple but so important. Lifestyle is the way in which person or group lives.  Wellness is the state or condition of being in good physical and mental health.



The first time I joined the daily challenge by MeYou Health, I took a test that let me know that both my lifestyle and wellness were poor.  It was not something new to me.  A person existing understands that they are on the bare bones of living.  It is one of the reasons why changing or asking for help very difficult.  Or why they are grumpy.  Now that I my mind is not set on a negative track, I wonder how I was able to go through life and not understand what was happening to me.  I mean I felt the effects of everything.  The causes were all different or maybe they weren’t I just rolled with the punches.  Then started to look like the punch bag. 

I have struggled with lifestyle, wellness, weight loss on previous projects that were doomed to failure because I lacked specific keys to success.  I don’t even think I have them all now.  I am still grappling with motivating myself to do differently. However I am putting out the effort in small increments at present.  I am going with the adage ‘small changes big effects’. 

It was decided to have 3 foci on this blog, mind, body, food.  Yesterday’s post was about food.  Today is the mind. Tomorrow is about body, I think. This will be a two weeks probation. If I am lucky I will be able to write something that make a little more sense.
